Post by: egg on September 02, 2008, 08:55 PM: if the gusset is welded all the way around then it's sometime around 00/03 they didn't change it much during those years,only the graphics changed.after that they left them open ended as i've seen a few crease at the gusset.until 05 when they slimmed down the back end to look normal.hope that helps.
